An Entity of Type: Thing, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

The Lotus 44 was an open-wheel Formula 2 racing car, designed, developed and built by the British motorsport team and constructor Lotus. It was powered by the 997 cc (60.8 cu in) Ford-Cosworth SCA four-cylinder engine. The Lotus 44 was manufactured in 1966 on the basis of the 1965 Lotus 35. The car got the wide suspension of the Lotus 41, which was successfully used in Formula 3 in the same year. The cars were fitted with Cosworth engines, but these were clearly inferior to the Honda powerplants used in Brabham's Formula 2 cars.
